FFS PGI! Tell us what we need to know about our faction medallion choices already! Are you intentionally waiting to tell us whats going on with faction benefits to mitigate refund requests seeing as it's too late to even get a refund?

Its running more than 3 months now. Grow some balls and announce an end date.
If the biggest fans havent bought it yet they arent such big fans.

However, there`s also what I call the "Keep up with the Joneses factor" to consider..... When people start dropping in their phoenix mechs, and the sale is still on until let`s say friday, Tuesday-Friday could well notice a visible bump in sales from people giong green with envy and emptying green from their pockets to restore balance. Some of these will even be people that have had their money refunded but will then feel the gut-punch of "I could have had that, too"... :D

It's a 2,5% boost to loyalty points. If these medallions are the reason for your refund I hope your mechs have bad knees.

Quoted just in case your rage-colored glasses didn't read it the first time. Pick your actual favorite faction(s) instead of trying to min-max something so minuscule...

Question:

Will the actual Phoenix sale still be available after the 15th? Will we have the opportunity to see what they all look like and perform like and still be able to get the Phoenix/Saber packages or is today the last chance to buy them?

If today were the last day to buy them, I'm sure they would have announced it. I wouldn't think they would stop Phoenix packages before the release of the last mech in them. I could be wrong though. They did give a final sale date for founders if I recall correctly.

Not to sound like a jerk, but I will be a bit mad if they do infact extend the sale date after the release.

Other then the bonuses which weren't announced until later, what would the point of preordering the package be then? Why take a leap of faith in buying mechs ahead of time that I'm not 100% sure I'll like when I could have waited a little to see them in action and get feedback from other players and make the choice then?

I don't want to deny anybody from buying the package, but at the same time it just doesn't feel right.

If this game goes down in flames we can possibly see renewal of development of MW:LL. That would be great.


Given that MW:LL has already been placed on the spotlight, do you think MS will allow it to be renewed without any significant licensing considerations (i.e. $$$)?

If they aren't getting anything you don't get, what does it really matter? If you bought it early enough, you got extra premium thrown in. Otherwise, it doesn't matter when you bought it as you get the same deal as anyone else. If it concerns you that you might not care for what you might get, you probably shouldn't have shelled out to begin with.

My concern is not in itself that I'm not sure what I'm getting, rather that if I knew I had the choice between preordering and buying after release beforehand without any loss of benefits either way, obviously I would have chose the latter.

Well if you bought in early enough there was the up to 90 days free premium time.

The company is based in Canada, not Australia. Calm down a bit, it's the wee hours of the morning over here so give it a little time.

Ok so it been Oct. 15 2013 now for over 9 hrs. and I am still waiting for the mechs, there was no time wasted in MWO taking my money when I placed order. I would think making us wait this long to get the update they could at least be prompt on getting it to us.

I know logic might be a foreign concept to some people, but is it not reasonable to assume that the 'Mechs will be available after the patch is deployed?

Following that logic, we deduce that the 'Mechs will be available sometime after 1pm Eastern which is when the patches are usually delivered.

I agree. It's like advanced-buyer's remorse. You people need to chill out and just wait for the patch. Stop second guessing yourself. Stop spending money you don't have. Take pride in supporting a small company.

That is all.

I don't want a refund, but thanks for the heads-up.

If the company mentions a date for a release should be taken from the International Date Line not when the company finally gets it *** outta bed and goes to work, as it is it is now 0134 HRS on the 16th and to my way of thinking that is LATE DELIVERY
